Again? They just won 13 games.
Again ? They beat a bunch of mediocre teams, lost to some bad teams, had a couple of decent wins, beat a Tampa team with a losing record, and scored 12 points to lose to San Fran. again. Empty stats. You must push empty Dak stats too - all the way to his San Fran performance.

They won 6 games against playoff teams. They beat the Eagles and the Bengals.

This team really needs a hammer to allow him to explode. When teams played the run Elliot was important to those 1st quarter 2 and 3 yard gains. Then Pollard had that change of pace speed through the hole that got him 5 yards through before he had to break a tackle. Maybe draft one. Don’t get me wrong Pollard runs good between the tackles but when they are softened up some it’s even better. And him being worn out after 15 carrys is not good.

No doubt we did better this season against playoff teams. Also lost a couple with our Defense blowing some nice leads.

Yes. Let’s get rid of the absolute best playmaker this team has. A team w limited skill position players, let’s get rid of pollard to save $10m on a 1 year contract so this team can roll it over and not spend it.

You guys are truly brilliant. I don’t know if you guys know anything. Anything at all.
Yah, brilliant. Let’s sink 10 million in to a back who usually gets injured during the season despite his limited carries. Plus we can feature him and run him more often. While he’s recovering again we can complain about having no receiver behind CeeDee, journeyman DT’s and no LB playmakers besides Parsons.

I think we should re-sign him…. I’m just not sure about using the tag. I might let him test the market.

Obviously the team doesn’t want to compete with a multi year offer. And they obviously don’t think LVE or DW6 are worthy of the tag.

I’m worried we’re gonna lose DW6.
Yep, we might be better off using the tag on LVE.. He's still only 26.

You don’t understand that this team isn’t spending that money in FA anyways. First day around here?

Everything they do is stupid. They are stupid, stupid, stupid. The team should be run by the guys on here.
So you think it is a smart move?
franchhise tag a RB with a broken leg. They don’t even know how he will recover yet. And they can find a RB in the draft.

I am not all against the FO, but I am allowed to question them at times aren’t I?

They beat the Bengals early on when they were playing poorly. I’m sure you’re counting that powerhouse Giants team and that sad Tampa Bay team. Plus that fraud Minnesota team. Oh, and they beat the Eagles at home against their back up QB. Your numbers are a joke again. You sound like Jerry.

Panic move of not being able to find anyone. Meanwhile Sanders in Philly, Jacobs in LV etc are going to be FA’s as well
Sanders almost 1300 yds, 11 TD, 20 rec for 78 yds, 2 fumbles - 2 lost, on a Super Bowl team- will turn 26 the first of May.
Jacobs leading rusher last season - almost 1700 yds, 12 TD, 53 recs for 400 yds, 3 fumbles - 1 lost - turns 25 this Saturday.
Those two players will be looking for a 2nd contract way more lucrative than I think Pollard will be seeking.

Zeke will 100% be here next season (on a reduced number) so yall that cosign this are ok with allocating $16m+ to that position next year?


Pass. Draft a guy and use that money on the defense

Any idea the list of our guys who need to be signed to new contracts? Try to keep up.

Some how I think that Elliot will take the pay reduction. He has made 70 million. They may very well keep him and tag Pollard. Then draft one and look at undrafted RB of FA. To go against Malik. Also was a RB that was injured some said if he wasn’t injured he would be there now instead of Malik. There will be a battle for 3 and that 3rd RB could be the future. I don’t see them letting Pollard and Elliot go. Cant discount Elliot in pass protection and short yardage or Pollard explosiveness. Honestly more worried about WR than RB. Lol.
